In an interview with Cyrus Broacha, Nikkhil Advani discussed his journey with Karan Johar and shared his surprise when the filmmaker approached him to assist him in his debut directorial. “Karan [Johar] meets me and says, ‘Will you hear my script?’ and I say sure, and he goes, ‘I have only written half,’ and I say no problem. I go to his house… He then narrated the script, and I said it was very good, it was superb. He said, ‘Will you assist me?’ which is quite weird because I used to bully him in school. Because he was red house and I was green house and I was a batch holder.”, Advani confessed.
Furthermore, the filmmaker mentioned that Kjo was bullied quite a bit at that time but also pondered on how the tables have changed now. “I bullied him a lot. Everybody used to bully Karan, it was unfortunate. Now today he can bully all of us! So yeah, we started working on Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.”, he added.
Speaking about Karan Johar and Nikkhil Advani, the duo worked together for several years but had a fallout in 2007 while completing Shah Rukh Khan starrer Kal Ho Naa Ho which was written by Johar but directed by Advani. However, the two filmmakers are expected to be a happier space right now and is expected to have extended an olive branch to each other.
Currently, while Nikkhil is busy with his directorials and productions under his banner Emmay Entertainment, Karan Johar too is focusing on multiple projects under banners Dharma Productions and Dharmatic Entertainment.
